D4K       52.211-9G73     PACKAGING AND MARKING
AND                       REQUIREMENTS (MAR 2004) DSCR
D11F39


     (a) Unless stated otherwise, commercial packaging in 
accordance with ASTM-D-3951 is required for CONUS shipments 
from the contractor directly to the customer.  Commercial
packaging and marking is not sufficient for vendor shipments
requiring movement through the Defense Transportation System
(also referred to as the Military Distribution System or DLA
Depot) as the shipment could ultimately be moved via Military
Air.

    (b) Higher level packaging in accordance with 
MIL-STD-2073 is mandatory for all shipments that meet the 
below criteria:

        Movement through the Defense Transportation System 
including shipments to a Military Distribution facility or 
depot. 
        OCONUS shipments 
        FMS shipments
        Hazardous material, as cited in the AID or in the 
Quality Requirements Matrix.

    (c) Materials not considered as HAZMAT for CONUS or 
OCONUS commercial air shipments may be considered HAZMAT 
for MILAIR shipments OCONUS.  As such, contractors/shippers
shall ensure that material meeting HAZMAT definitions in DLAI
4145.3, Preparing Hazardous Materials for Military Air 
Shipment, is packaged in accordance with that instruction 
when the consignee is OCONUS and the shipment will be moved 
through the Defense Transportation System.  DLAI 4145.3 is 
available on the internet at: 
www.dscc.dla.mil/downloads/packaging/dlai4145_3.pdf.

    (d) All items shall be marked in accordance with 
MIL-STD-129P.  Hazardous items and shelf life items, as cited 
in the AID or in the Quality Requirements Matrix, shall be 
marked in accordance with MIL-STD-129P and the appropriate 
clauses cited in the appendix to the matrix and the 
contract.  The contractor is required to package material
in accordance with Quantity Unit Pack (QUP), specified in 
MIL-STD-2073 and the Unit of Issue (UI), specified in each 
delivery order.  A packing slip shall be located in a 
plastic pouch on the outside of the package.  For HAZMAT 
destined OCONUS, a hard copy of the Material Safety Data 
Sheet (MSDS) must also be included.

    (e) In the event of deployments, this clause may be 
invoked when shipments originally destined for a CONUS 
location are diverted to OCONUS destinations thereby 
necessitating movement of the material through the Defense 
Transportation System.  In such an event, contractors will 
be notified by the Contracting Officer and an equitable 
adjustment will be made in the contract price as deemed 
appropriate.

NOTE:  Applicable to negotiated solicitations.  Offers that 
do not comply with the packaging and marking requirements 
as specified in Section D of this solicitation may be 
subject to rejection as being technically unacceptable.
